Matt Slack is a funny comedian but serious actor but entertaining performer but brilliant all rounder, you can't pigeon hole him as he puts 100% into all he does. Matt & I worked together in the summer of 2001 in Babbacombe Torquay. The theatre summer season was just memorable surrounded by great people, working with top acts who were fun to be with socially and on stage, it was where I got engaged, Matt became a father and soon after that season his career took a turn for success when his World collided with Qdos Entertainment.
Matt has appeared in Movies, Soaps, Drama's, Musicals, and is currently one of the favourites to see in Pantomime as he becomes a Star at the Birmingham Hippodrome.
For now take a listen to how Matt grafted and swapped his Cabaret Act for more serious roles when he joins me on Eyes And Teeth - Funny For Money.

Rich Purpura to me took me under his wing when I joined Disney Cruise Lines in 2006. I really enjoyed his company. When Rich was your friend you were safe in Disney Land. Everyone knew Rich. He is rich in personality, performance, in Comedy Magic and anecdotes and boy if you were out with Rich he acted as your security so you would not have to queue anywhere you went. Above all else, he was hilarious to have as a friend on and off stage.

Rich talks about his time over here in the UK in the late 80's early 90's, working Windsor and The Albert Hall, working Comedy Clubs and the majority of his work on Cruise Ships Worldwide. The story of the Captain's Cocktail Party Fiasco has to be heard to be believed. 
Sit back and enjoy the Chicago way of my friend, Micky Mouse's friend Rich Purpura.

Talking to Phil Reid really gives you a full insight to the beginnings of Stand Up Comedy, He has the perfect influences he grafted the right way in Bingo Halls and Holiday Parks hosting shows and he just went for it any given opportunity to use those adlib skills and turn them into punchlines and get those first laughs. He credits Miles Crawford & Keith Harris as being important role models in giving their time and kindness as they saw in Phil the talent he has and I have seen it, he is a brilliant MC, compere, and Stand Up Comic in his own right and he has also found the World of Pantomime and Variety. He has the mutual respect of those before us as I do and he is clearly a genuine being with a love for what he does.

Andy Collins is a busy man, whether its Buttons in Pantomime, DJ at BBC Three Counties Radio, Warming up audiences on the Biggest TV Shows on British Television. Andy & I shared a dressing room in 2004 and are still in touch today as this business brings us together once every 4 years or so, but when we do work together, tea does flow.
Andy's 12 days of Christmas routine has to be one of the funniest I have seen, I have no idea where he gets his energy, but I know he uses it all daily for the next project whether its bantering with Paul O Grady or playing Golf with Ant & Dec or training for a Boxing Match. It was great catching up with Andy early 2021 and I hope you enjoy this conversation with The TV Warm Up Man Andy Collins.

Kitty Harris is a Tik Tok performer with over 500,000 friends and growing watching her little shows. Not only can Kitty sing and write songs and dance but she has a natural comedy talent that shows through her tik tok sketches and is the reason she has stood out in this popular social media platform.

I met Kitty and her brother Shenton in the Algarve and in Blackpool at the Harris family home whilst meeting up with their parents Sarah & Keith Harris.
Keith was a huge inspiration to me as a ventriloquist and performer and if we were not chatting on the phone, he was texting me and always ended the text with "Eyes & Teeth" and you can see how much that has influenced me.

To pay tribute to Keith after his passing in 2015, Kitty, Sarah and I teamed up with Nick Thomas and his Qdos Entertainment team to put on a Spectacular night of variety in Blackpool and it sold out fast as the industry and fans of Orville & Cuddles alongside Keith pulled together to remember a Great man.
Kitty that night shone twice putting together 2 hit performances with her dance group and she even joined me on Tour and in a summer season at the Pleasure Beach in 2017 & 2018.

Kitty just keeps on performing, find out more as I welcome to Eyes and Teeth - the finale of Future Stars - Kitty Harris
